Pikulin, D.I. (author), Nazarov, Y.V. (author)Motivated by recent developments in the field of one-dimensional topological superconductors, we investigate the topological properties of s-matrix of generic superconducting junctions where dimension should not play any role. We argue that for a finite junction the s-matrix is always topologically trivial. We resolve an apparent contradiction...journal article

Van der Put, T.A.C.M. (author)The article of Raven, Blaauwendraad and Vambersky in HERON 53, No. 1 discusses stability checking of torsional buckling in structural members loaded by compressive forces and bending moments. Unfortunately, many important issues are not considered and need to be commented on.journal article

Leus, G. (author), Van Walree, P.A. (author)A multiband OFDM transmitter and receiver are presented for underwater communications at low SNR. Compared with a single-band OFDMscheme, the multiband approach leads to a considerable reduction in the receiver complexity. The proposed system has been tested at sea with 16 subbands covering a total bandwidth of 3.6 kHz, at user data rates of 4.2...journal article

Godfroy, F. (author)For the nano-scientists at the Faculty of Applied Sciences, having their articles published in prestigious journals like Nature and Science is no longer all that special these days. The TU Delft physicists have been publishing virtually non-stop in what are regarded as the best science journals in their field. Landing a cover story however...journal article

Kooij, R.E. (author), Jamakovic, A. (author), Van Kesteren, F. (author), De Koning, T.C.M. (author), Theisler, I.B. (author), Veldhoven, P. (author)In de zomer van 2008, tijdens het Europees Kampioenschap voetbal in Zwitserland en Oostenrijk, zullen weer miljoenen mensen de verrichtingen van het Nederlands elftal op de voet volgen. Ondanks het feit dat voetbal razend populair is, bestaat er vanuit de wetenschappelijke wereld relatief weinig interesse voor voetbal. In dit artikel bestuderen...journal article

Van Mieghem, P. (author), Tang, S. (author)We model the weight (e.g. delay, distance or cost) from an arbitrary node to the nearest (in weight) peer in a peer-to-peer (P2P) network. The exact probability generating function and an asymptotic analysis is presented for a random graph with i.i.d. exponential link weights. The asymptotic distribution function is a Fermi-Dirac distribution...journal article

Siek, M. (author), Solomatine, D.P. (author)This paper addresses the use of the methods of nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory for building a predictive chaotic model from time series. The chaotic model predictions are made by the adaptive local models based on the dynamical neighbors found in the reconstructed phase space of the observables. We implemented the univariate and multivariate...journal article

Kringos, N. (author), Schmets, A. (author), Scarpas, A. (author), Pauli, T. (author)The self-restoring or healing capacity of asphalt has been known for quite some time. Yet, to this date, there is no consensus of the fundamental mechanism underlying this phenomenon. In this paper a multi-scale model is presented which focuses on the healing phenomenon from a thermodynamic point of view. In the model, healing of bituminous...journal article

Danon, J. (author), Nazarov, Y.V. (author)We study electron transport in a double quantum dot in the Pauli spin blockade regime in the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling. The effect of spin-orbit coupling is incorporated into a modified interdot tunnel coupling. We elucidate the role of the external magnetic field, the nuclear fields in the dots, and the spin relaxation. We find...journal article

Atamanenko, T.V. (author), Eskin, D.G. (author), Zhang, L. (author), Katgerman, L. (author)It is well known that ultrasonic melt treatment (UST) promotes grain refinement in aluminum alloys. Cavitation-aided grain refinement has been studied for many years; however, it is still not being applied commercially. The current article summarizes the results of experimental work performed on various alloying systems at different stages of...journal article

Haddadi, H. (author), Uhlig, S. (author), Moore, A. (author), Mortier, R. (author), Rio, M. (author)Despite the large number of papers on network topology modeling and inference, there still exists ambiguity about the real nature of the Internet AS and router level topology. While recent findings have illustrated the inaccuracies in maps inferred from BGP peering and traceroute measurements, existing topology models still produce static...journal article

Hoving, D. (author)Satellites can make observations that are crucial for creating good climate models. The current uncertainty surrounding these models however can lead to the wrong political decisions being taken. The Faculty of Aerospace Engineering is therefore calling for an expansion of satellite-based Earth observations.journal article

Konstantinou, T. (author), Knaack, U. (author)Refurbishing the existing building stock is an acknowledged issue in the building industry. Even though awareness has been raised, the design phase of refurbishment projects is often problematic. The decisions taken in the early stages of the design determine the final result; however, the assessment of the environmental performance only happens...journal article

Visscher, R. (author)The red Dutch mailboxes, the emergency roadside telephones, the Senseo coffeemaker and the SENZ umbrella. Alumni and staff of the Faculty of Industrial Design Engineering have certainly made their mark on the Netherlands. In 2009, the faculty celebrates its fortieth anniversary. A proud milestone, yet the faculty’s innovative drive remains as...journal article
